CEE 122 Fluid Mechanics

Course Syllabus in pdf

1. During the semester, 2 one-hour tests will be given. The student MUST take all two tests. Basically NO make-ups are granted unless absence from a test is justified with proper documentation. An unexpected absence will result in a zero grade. All tests will be based on the material covered up to the date of test. Unless otherwise instructed, closed-book tests should be expected. Any grade review you see justified should be brought to my attention within the first week of receiving the grade.
2. Homework will be assigned and specified either as "suggested" or "to be collected" at that time. The homework assignments should be neat, orderly, and submitted on Engineering Computation Paper. Include an appropriate, well-drawn sketch whenever possible. Homework is due at the beginning of the lecture. There will be in class unannounced quizzes.
3. If you have a disability for which you are or may be requesting academic accommodations, please contact your professor and provide appropriate approval from the university as early as possible in the semester.
4. It has been my experience in the past that when students study in groups, and communicate and share resources, they seem to perform better. Obviously, this is a generalization and I am sure there are many exceptions. However, please keep this in mind and take advantage of study groups whenever you can.
